I'm new

Hi all, I'm new to this little community. I'd like to think of myself as a "dark artist", though most of my work doesn't appear it. I've supressed this side of myself for a long period of time, but thanks to my significant others (yes, I have two), I'm getting in touch with the dark side of myself again. This will be my first post, please feel free to critique, and pointers on technique for blood and the like are always appriciated.
